Nitrogen absorption by alpine forage species based on 15N tracer technique in a hydroponic culture

Based on 15N tracer technique,absorption of different concentrations of ammonium nitrogen(N-NH^(4+)),nitrate nitrogen(N-NO^(3-))and glycine(NGly)by root of six species of alpine forage(Puccinellia tenuiflora,Poa crymophila,Festuca sinensis,Elymus nutans,Elymus sibiricus and Bromus inermis)was studied in a hydroponic culture.The uptake kinetic parameter was analyzed according to Michaelis-Menten equation.The Michaelis-Menten equation represents the velocity equation for the relationship between the initial rate of an enzymatic reaction and the substrate concentration.The result showed that the absorption range of ammonium nitrogen,nitrate nitrogen and glycine by root of six species of alpine plant were 1.1-20.9μmol·g^(-1)·h^(-1),0.4-3.4μmol·g^(-1)·h^(-1) and 0.1-3.7μmol·g^(-1)·h^(-1),which accounts for 68.8%-74.7%,12.0%-27.0%and 4.3%-13.4%of total absorptivity,respectively.The six kinds of P.tenuiflora,P.crymophila,F.sinensis,E.nutans,E.sibiricus and B.inermis showed significant difference in nitrogen absorption.At the same concentration,the absorption of nitrogen in different forms of the same herbage is different.The absorptive amount of ammonium nitrogen was the highest among them,then the glycine,the nitrate nitrogen was least absorbed.The results could provide a theoretical basis for nitrogen utilization in alpine forages.For example,P.tenuiflora showed a much higher ability of absorbing nitrogen nutrition in a high salt environment and could be a more suitable herbage to be planted in saline-alkali soil in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau as compared with E.nutans.

Judd-Ofelt parameters of the up-conversion phosphors： Er3＋ doped BaGd2ZnO5/PMMA and NaYF4/PMMA

We proposed a new approach to determination of Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters of Er^（3＋） doped phosphors via their absorption spectra. To validate this approach, JO parameters of Er^（3＋） doped Ba BaGd_2ZnO_5/PMMA and NaYF_4/PMMA composites were calculated and in a good agreement with the other glass and crystal. The spontaneous radiative transition probability, branching ratio, and radiative lifetime of the optical transitions were calculated by using the Judd-Ofelt theory. Intense near-infrared emission at 1553 nm was observed under 980 nm laser diode excitation at room temperature. The samples possessing high full-width at half-maximum reach 85 nm have potential application in broadband optical amplifier.

Remote Detection of Hydrocarbon Microseepage in a Loess Covered Area

Hydrocarbon microseepage can result in related near-surface mineral alterations.In this study,we evaluated the potential of detecting these alterations with field measured and satellite acquired hyperspectral data.Fourteen soil samples and reflectance spectra were collected in the Xifeng Oilfield,a loess covered area.Soil samples were analyzed in the laboratory for calcite,dolomite,kaolinite,illite,and mixedlayer illite/smectite content,and we processed reflectance spectra for continuum removal to derive clay and carbonate mineral absorption depth(H).High correlation between absorption depth and mineral content was shown for clay and mineral carbonate with field measured spectra.Based on the result for the field spectra,we proposed and tested a fast index based on the absorption depth of clay and carbonate minerals with a hyperspectral image of the area.The detected hydrocarbon microseepage anomalies matched well with those shown in the geological map.

Synthesis,structural study,thermal,optical properties and characterization of the new compound[C6H7N2O2]3TeCl5·2Cl

The new organic-inorganic compound, [C_6H_7N_2O_2]_3TeCl_5·2Cl was synthesized and its structure was determined at room temperature in the triclinic system （P^-1） with the following parameters： a = 10.5330（11） ？, b = 10.6663（11） ？, c = 15.9751（16）？, α = 82.090（2）°, β = 71.193（2）°, γ = 68.284（2）°and Z = 2. The final cycle of refinement led to R = 0.057 and Rw = 0.149. The crystal structure was stabilized by an extensive network of N--H···Cl and non-classical C--H···Cl hydrogen bonds between the cation and the anionic group. Several thermal analysis techniques such as thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetric analysis and evolved gas analysis were used. We used isoconversional kinetics methods to determine the kinetics parameters. We observe that the decomposition of [C_6H_7N_2O_2]_3TeCl_5·2Cl entails the formation hydrochloric acid of nitroaniline as volatiles. The infrared spectra were recorded in the4000–400 cm^（-1）frequency region. The Raman spectra were recorded in the external region of the anionic sublattice vibration 50–1500 cm^（-1）. The optical band gap was calculated from the UV-Vis absorbance spectra using classical Tauc relation which was found to be 3.12 and 3.67 eV.
